No excuse for Modly- that was sheer hubris.

This is where I am at. I am 50/50 whether the Commander was getting stone walled and intentionally leaked the doc to help his crew, or, someone in his upline with an ax to grind leaked it knowing it would flow back to the commander. As stated in the link above, I think there is more investigating that needs to be done.

As far as Modly, very juvenile. When you terminate someone, you make the decision, do the deed, move on. You don't fly half way around the world to "explain yourself" and denigrate the person you fired in the process.
